Happy Anniversary to us!

There is so much I could say about the guy in these pictures. He is my best friend and the most wonderful husband I could have ever imagined having. He is a great step-dad. He is a fun, loving, generous "Poppy John" to our boys. And all my family and friends think the world of my husband. He treats people well. And I love that about him.

I love, appreciate, respect and admire him more than I could ever express. In my second book, my editor suggested I gush a little bit less about John. So I'm going to spare you the "barf bag" gushing and just say how thankful I am for every day of the last nine years I've had the privilege, the honor, and the sheer joy of being Mrs. John Howerton.

More than anything else, I want to be a true disciple of Christ; cultivating love, forgiveness, mercy, compassion, unselfishness and humility into every aspect of my life. I am happily married to my knight in shining armor and best friend, John. I am proud to be Danny's mom and Rebecca's mother-in-law. I love being Grandma Shari to my four grandchildren. I am a homemaker, volunteer, writer and "foodie." I love to cook and eat great food. And since 2007, I have been learning all I can about CLL in order to be the best patient advocate possible for my husband as he battles Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia.
